    Oh… That sounds like a nightmare. How do you even fix that? There’s no “revert the entire filesystem’s permissions to default” button that I’m aware of

      If you are lucky your system is atomic or has other roll back feature. Otherwise it’s reinstall time.

      I guess you could set up a fresh system, run a script that goes through each folder checking the permission and setting it on the target system.

      I think they had to reinstall. It was part of a Hadoop cluster and that was extra finicky.
